Description

Making mistakes is one way to learn. But no matter how many times someone says that to me, it still feels bad when it happens. This talk shares some ways to help you make fewer mistakes by making better decisions.

But there are tools and frameworks that you can use to sense-check when you’re about to make a difficult choice, to help you have the best possible outcome (or to learn better from a choice that in hindsight you think was wrong).

This talk is aimed at engineers, tech leads, managers, humans - anyone who makes decisions. Making better decisions is a skill that you can improve on, and this talk will introduce some ways to do that.

Nicky is a Principal Technologist at dxw, providing technical leadership and support to the Technology Team and dxw’s clients.

She’s worked with designers all over the world, making beautiful websites that work for everyone. Offline, Nicky enjoys watching bad TV and learning new stuff: this year it’s a serious sewing/dressmaking habit.
